Fancy something sweet, and want it right now? These soft and gooey Blueberry and White Chocolate Blondies from Rosie Reynolds, author of The Short Cut Cook All In One, are ready in roughly the same time it takes to preheat the oven. You could try swapping the blueberries for raspberries or chopped strawberries – and add a grating of lemon zest for a bit of zing. The recipe is based on using an 800W microwave at full power.

Ingredients
- 50g unsalted butter, plus extra for the dish
- 75g soft brown sugar
- 1 medium egg
- 100g plain flour
- ½ tsp baking powder
- 75g blueberries
- 50g white chocolate chunks, plus 1 tbsp to decorate
- 8 scoops vanilla ice cream (optional)
Method
Step 1
Grease a 22cm x 15cm microwave-safe dish with butter and line with baking paper. Melt the 50g butter in a microwave-safe bowl for 20 secs or until runny. Remove and leave to cool.Step 2
Stir the sugar into the melted butter until combined. Crack in the egg and keep stirring until smooth. Add the flour and baking powder; mix until completely combined.Step 3
Fold in the blueberries, then the chocolate; scrape into the dish.Step 4
Microwave for 2½ mins, then check – the surface of the blondie should look cooked. If not, give it another 30 secs and remove. The base will still be gooey, but it will continue to cook as it cools.Step 5
Dot over the reserved chocolate chunks. Stand the dish on a wire rack and leave to cool. Cut into 8 squares. Enjoy the blondies as they are or microwave them for 10-20 secs and serve with ice cream, if you like. They’ll keep wrapped in baking paper in an airtight container for 2 days.
